Sustainable Shaun
One of our biggest accomplishments: Sustainable Shaun is an online game designed to help children grasp the concept of sustainability with complementary challenges designed for use in schools.
We worked with Aardman Animations Ltd, to create a game in which players help Shaun build a new eco-friendly city. Shaun must find a place to live for the stray animals of Big City. Accordingly, players are challenged to keep them happy by monitoring resources, food, energy, transport and nature issues.
We are so proud to say that Sustainable Shaun has won a coveted TIGA award for ‘Best Game with a Purpose.’ Furthermore, at the present time, it is played in 209 countries worldwide and has been translated into 28 languages by the European Commission.
Our game was commended for its engaging gameplay and strong visual design. Additionally, the game’s purpose – to connect children with sustainability in a fun way – was acknowledged. Despite the stiff competition from experts in the gaming world, including a BBC Doctor Who entry, Sustainable Shaun won the TIGA Award.
